Film crews are at Veselka today for an "Ocean's 8" shoot... The restaurant on Second Avenue at Ninth Street will be open for service today at 4.
This spin-off of the Ocean's Trilogy has an ensemble cast that includes Sandra Bullock, Cate Blanchett, Helena Bonham Carter, Anne Hathaway, Rihanna, Mindy Kalig, Awkwafina, Dakota Fanning, among others.
Past "Ocean's 8" shooting locales include Blue & Gold on Seventh Street and Papaya Dog on 14th Street at First Avenue.
The film has a June 8, 2018, release date.
Updated 9 p.m.
The Daily Mail has more on the shoot and a lot of photos of Bullock and Blanchett.
So this is the reason why parking is more difficult.
ReplyDeleteThis movie is going to tank.
ReplyDeleteIs it me, or is the production of this taking a while? It's like they are trying to film in every current hip spot under 14th street, as if it was a ny times style section video piece.
People will be visiting these places for the next 50+ years because they used these businesses in the production
ReplyDeleteSandra Bullock is still beautiful!
ReplyDeleteRun don't walk... away from this movie.
ReplyDeleteI just wanted to say: EVERY comment above was wrong. The movie was average, maybe slightly above average. Some people liked it, others didn't, but definitely worth seeing. It was a box office success (at time of writing, they are nearing $200 mill earned on a $70 mill budget). Veselka (or any other NYC location, for that matter) will not be visited for the "next 50 years" on account of being used in this movie.
ReplyDeletePerfect example of how the Internet has become so ridiculous. Our first instinct is to exaggerate. We feel the need to react wildly to every little thing. I just thought I'd point that out.
